He has not told me that he loves me,
He has not asked my secret sweet
And yet treasure all his glanceS.
And DER and DER his words repeat,
They say should not take for granted,
Because he's glad 10 be with me,
That he feels anything but friendship;
Perhaps that's so-but can't they sec?
Are words the only symbol love has?
Do looks and actions bear no part
In showing TO an anxious watcher
The subtle workings of II heart?
Would friendship make his voice grow softer
1mbue it with mysterious power.
Or make him plead with earnest longing
Just for ribbon or q flower?
Would friendship make his eyes grow tender
And quicken every pulses tCat
When am near? or gently thrill him
Whene'er our glanceS chance to meet?
Would friendship make him sad or happy
In sympathy with moods of mine,
Forgetinl Of himself and ready
To gladly heed my slightest sign?
No; though he has not said he loves me,
am content, because know
1t is not fricndship-though for prudence
They say I'd better call it so.
I will not check my fonGcst feelings,
Because the day will come ere long
When he'll confess the love he bears Inc,
Making my life joyous song.

ton yesterday.

The submission question passed Its
third reading in the House by vote OF
rs to 8, which fixes September 1887 for

The House is holding night sessions
and will finish their work by the last OF

This looks like class legislation for it is
a direct hit at the radical party.

"The principle OF the zoetrope, or
wheel of life, has recently been utilized
to show the passage of certain isometric
crystals from one form into another.
The transformation of a cube, for in
stance, into an octahedron or dodecahe-
dron, through the intermediate COM
pound forms, by the replacement of its
angles by planes, can be shown directly
to the student and will greatly aid INN
in compromising the primary laws Of
crystalline forms. Chicago Tribune.
Bob Taylor ought to send for one Of
those Zoetrope contrivances and utilize
it to show his passage from an anti
Blair bill Democrat to an isotksamic
mugwump, and how cubically square
candidate can be transformed into a
knock-kneed Octahedron through inter-
mediate contact with Col. Colyar.
This instrument would greatly aid him
in comprehending the primary laws OF
common honesty as set forth in the
constitution and the Democratic plat.
forms, both State and National.
Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1887-03-12
THEN:AND NOW.

During his canvass foris.Govemor,
Robert L. Taylor went outside of the
Democratic Platform to declare that he,
personally, was in favor OF selling the
public lands and distributing the pro-
ceeds among the States. This was a
dodge OF his own to escape the argu-
ments OF his brother ALI. r. L. Taylor
went entirely outside of both the State
and national platform o! Democracy,
The young class of editors who are
now following Col. Colyar don't seem
to know that the old Democracy always
favored keeping the public lands as free
homes for actual settlers, while the old
wing platform OF 40 and "A declared
for 1.-THE sale, and distribution of the
proceeds of the public lands" among
the States, not for any specified pur-
pose.
A prominent banner used by the
Democracy OF Tennessee in 1874 repre-
sented wide western Prairie and on il
was drawn the picture OF "Squatter"
towards whom United States Soldier
was advancing at "charge bayonet,"
while Henry Clay was pictured as
pointing his long finger at the @Squatter"
and exclaiming to the Soldier: "Re-
move that lawless land-pirate and
robberl"
1t is we'll to recur sometimes to first
principles, and now is an occasion when
the old men of the country should tell
their sons the truth about this matter.
One half of the country papers that
now think 1t smart to echo the heresies
of Col. Colyar know no more about the
original principles of Democracy than
they do of the Sanscrit tongue.
A principle never dies. False proph-
cts have sprung up in every age, their
teachings have caught the ignorant and
unsuspecting, but, like Jonah's gourd,
they grew up, budded and withered in
day. Let not the false prophets OF
to-day base their hopes upon the as
sumed weakness Of Democracy. With
the dawn OF civilization in Europe the
idea OF freedom was conceived. The
idea was embodied IN the declaration
written by Jefferson, and around that
central idea has grown the Democratic
party. For a hundred years its eye has
not grown dim, nor its natural powers
abated, but it still exults in the over
towering energy, the bounding
strength and the conquering will which
has characterized it in all its contests
and which will again bring to tn,
friends Of honest government glori
Gus triumph over all their enemie
whether they present themselves a
open foes or as traitors in the camp o
Democracy.

AND now the Lebanon Register comes
out and accuses the Nashville Union OF
straight-cut. fiat-footed lying in regard
to the school boys burning Bob Taylor
in effigy. IT'S too horrible! Colyar, the
immaculate, the psalm-singing leader
of all the good-goodys OF the State to be
accused Of telling common, cheap
newspaper lie. And then to charge
that the school boys OF Lebanon burnt
in effigy the first convert to the Blair
bill is "a huge and bloody intimation tina
the school boys are innocently givinl
expression to the general sentiment o
the people Of the entire State.

THE friends of Archie Thomas,
editor Of the Springfield Record, will
understand the joke which some mug
wump played on him by editing the
Record while Arch was gone to Nash
vile, For instance this new editor
asks:
Now, fellow-citizens, Congress will
not reduce the Tariff. The collection
of millions Of your dollars will be piled
up in the Treasury. Stripped OF Fed
eral supervision will you accept it, or
are you in favor of allowing corrupt
men to steal it.
OF course the new editor don't intend
to let strangers steal the millions Of
your dollars" but he proposes to do a
good share himself OF the stealing be-
cause: "Fellow-citizens Congress
will not reduce the tariff" o, Archie
give us rest, and have that editors
hair cut.

HENRY WARD BEEeHER. the cele-
brated preacher Of Plymouth church
who bad been lying in comatose con-
dition since Sunday died on Tuesday
the Sth instant in Brooklyn. He first
became prominent as a preacher OF
blood and abolition during the Kansas
troubles before the war and was
most vndictive enemy Of the South.
Time and observation worked great
changes in his opinions. His hatred
Of the South and of Democracy yielded
to his better informed common sense
and he grew better as he grew older,
His fanaticism in religion as in poll
tics yielded to kindlier view OF mems
acts and opinions. Possessing. per-
haps, the ablest mind in the United
States he has gradually widened his
field OF vision by travel and study I'M
til he became marked instance Of his
own .iaith in evolution by changing
from fanatical abolition emmisary to
a constitutional Democrat, and from
an orthodox preacher OF damnation to
liberal teacher of morals, who denied
the existence OF any such place as the
hell he once cherished for Southern
sinners. His last days we're his best,
and the Southern men he once so hated
will remember only the good things
he has said and done.

1T is strange but true that those mod
ern reformers like Blair and his fol-
lowers who propose TO elevate and
purify the people by means Of Educa-
ton begin their first lesson by teaching
dishonesty and filing the minds Of the
people with the pernicious idea that
there is no crime involved in robbing
the treasury-because, perhaps, tits not
an offense for which an individual can
be called up before grand-jury.
Robbery is no less robbery when
committed by a multitude than when
committed by an individual, and there
is no more cunning plan for making
stealing popular than to gloss the crime
with the yarnish of sanctity-to rob the
Egyptians in order to gather jewels for
the Tabernacle.
